Calculate Inventory for BOM Lines

Previously, we displayed stock for BOM items as for finished goods but not for components. There are currently two ways to calculate and display the inventory of BOM items, and you can use the one that works for you.

  • Calculate inventory for BOM – Inventory is calculated for the BOM item as for one saleable unit. This means that the BOM item with all its lines is a finished product. When a customer purchases the BOM item, inventory will be deducted from it as from one saleable unit, but not from its lines.
  • Calculate inventory for BOM lines – Inventory is calculated based on all available BOM lines. The system checks how many finished products can be produced from the available BOM lines. When a customer purchases the BOM item, inventory will be deducted from all BOM lines.
